Final Girls

The "Final Girl" in horror films has a rich history in some of the most influential films of the past fifty years. Often paragons of virtue and innocence, they become true survivors and sometimes heroes. Jerry and Matt look at two unique representations of this classic trope, with Sidney Prescott from the inventive and self-aware classic, "Scream" from 1996, and Naru, the Comanche woman fighting for her life and honor in the excellent "Prey" from 2022. Girl Power to the extreme!
